Re: Customizing SSL with jdbc

    Thanks again. This would certainly work for my scenario. A similar option for client authentication might also be useful.

Hi   Thanks for the reply. The only thing special about the factory is 
that it has access to the server certificate that is bundled with the 
client jars and is not installed in the jvm's trust store. I agree the 
static method is not the way to go as it affects all the connections. In 
my specific case it is okay as I know all the clients using the 
connections in  agiven client jvm.   

What about an additional URL parameter like
sslfactoryfactory=com.mycompany.myfactory, where the provided class must
implement something like:

package org.postgresql;

interface SSLSocketFactoryFactory {public SSLSocketFactory getFactory();
}

Seems like this could work.  Thoughts?  Any other SSL options and things
people would want to tweak?
